![]() The vod'e, realizing that they weren’t going to be in much trouble if Skywalker was being so flippant, began to relax. Skywalker looked between Fives and Kenobi, shrugged, and said, “Yep.” “That’s the story you’re going with?” Kenobi asked, exasperated. Repressed snickers came from the troopers as Kenobi glanced at a vod near one of the walls, leaning against the shoulder of another vod, clearly drunk and also very clearly the aforementioned ‘Fives’. “Oh? However did you learn that we reached Republic space and had the time to get this celebration together, when it’s only been-at most-ten minutes?” It was incredibly obvious that he was lying. These are just particularly strong batches of gutrot and grog,” Skywalker said. They knew that, while technically allowed to drink on the ships during what qualified as down time, enemy space was no place for large groups of vod'e to be indisposed. “I just came from the bridge to inform you all that we reached Republic space.”Ī couple of the vod'e in-frame winced. “Anakin, what do you think you’re doing?” Kenobi asked. High General Obi-Wan Kenobi walked into the storage room that was partially transformed into a lounge-as was common among GAR ships with little to no leisure space-taking in the inebriated troopers and his own former padawan. General Anakin Skywalker was sitting among the clones on a crate, his own armor and outer tunics shed, cheeks pink from what was probably illicitly brewed gutrot. Any vod'e or Jedi watching would know the mixture was likely from fleeing a hostile situation and being unable to return the troopers to their proper ships as of yet. It was a fairly regular vid as far as the CloneNet went, of a post-battle party on the Resolute, if the disproportionate amount of 501st blue was any indication. It was probably surprising that it took as long as it did to come into the public eye. Still, all it would take is for a few civilians to stumble across the CloneNet for the public to know about it. ![]() The Jedi found similar solace on the CloneNet, given the war front as well as the unique way of Temple life. Those were all well and good, as well, but seeing vod'e messing around on a battle cruiser or on the edges of a battlefield was far more familiar than even the most basic concepts of “regular” civilian life. ![]() The CloneNet was a harmless way to have fun while connecting with relatable material that just wasn’t found in the more public HoloDramas and popular content on the rest of the 'Net. Quite a few padawans and knights even made a habit of posting vids. It was not a closed circuit, either-that would have been more hassle than it was worth, given how careful the troopers were about posting anything confidential-and it was well known that the Jedi were aware of it. The vod'e all knew about it and what was likely the majority of them frequented the site when they had access to the HoloNet. It was a war, afterall, and vod'e died every single day.Īs for the forum itself-nicknamed the CloneNet, at some point during its rising popularity among the GAR-wasn’t exactly a private thing. For all anyone knew the originators of the forum could be long dead. Obviously someone had to have started the forum, and someone had to let vod'e know about it for it to gain so much traction within the first month of the war, but nobody really had any idea of who this person was. Nobody really knew when, exactly, the CloneNet first began.
